Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes. Explanations vary. Sample explanation: The weight itself doubles, so

any measurement of the weight using the same units will also double. We

can also see that by saying if the weight is x pounds, then double that weight

would be 2x pounds. The weight in kilograms will be x ÷ 2.2, and the double

weight will be or (2x) ÷ 2.2 2(x ÷ 2.2), which is also double.
